      1. Introduction

      360 Feedback involves gathering input from multiple sources, including managers, peers, and subordinates, to provide a comprehensive overview of an employee's performance. 

      As a manager, guiding direct reports through the 360 Feedback process can improve communication, goal setting, performance, and job satisfaction. The insights collected from the feedback process highlight the personal behaviors, competencies, and skills required for performing the duties and achieving organizational goals.

      Note: All the respondents/reviewers involved in the feedback process have a working relationship with the employee being rated.

      1.1. How does it Work

      • You receive a notification to submit the review about your direct reports (if the HR/admins nominate you as a reviewer).
      • You can assign templates to your direct reports (if HR/admins enable permission).
      • You submit the review.
      • Reviewers submit their reviews about your direct reports.
      • You can nudge the reviewers to submit their reviews.
      • You can lock the Feedback cycle of your direct reports to pause the feedback process.

      Note: HR/admins can lock and unlock the employees' feedback cycle.

      1.2. User Actions

      You can perform the following actions in 360 Feedback:

      • View the employees’ review ratings
      • Nudge reviewers to submit their reviews
      • Lock the 360 Feedback cycle

      If the HR/admins give you access, you can

      • Assign and unassign template.
      • Invite additional reviewers.
      • View and export the review report.

      Assign Templates

      You can assign the template to your direct reports only if the HR/admins enable permission while creating a cycle. You can also assign different templates to different employees as required. Learn more in Assign Templates.

      Note:

      • You cannot assign multiple templates to an employee. However, you can assign different templates to different employees.
      • Unassigning the template will delete the employees' review progress.

      Nominate Reviewers

      • Add respondents
